What inspectors found
From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 9 May 2019. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

Read the rest of CQC's summary
The care service had not originally been developed and designed in line with the values that underpin the Registering the Right Support and other best practice guidance. The home had been registered before such guidance was produced. The guidance focussed on values including choice, promotion of independence and inclusion so that people with learning disabilities and autism using a service can live as ordinary a life as any citizen. However, it was clear that people living in Highcroft House were given such choices. The home was located in a residential suburb where people's independence and participation within the local community continued to be encouraged and enabled.
